In the life of the silk worm there are five
periods or ages between the different moults,
the first after the Matching and the last before
spinning.
The three most marked and noted European
varieties OF cocoons are the Italian breed,
producing small yellow cocoons; the French
producing large white cocoous.
White silk is the most valuable in com
merce, but the races producing yellow, cream
colored or sulphur cocoons are generally con-
sidered to be the most vigorous
Reeed silk is classified into organzine, tram
and floss. Organzine is closely spun or
twisted and is the best. Tram is made from
inferior cocoons, and is more loosely spun
and twisted. Floss is made of the loose silk
carded and spun like cotton or wool
Among silk worms the ANNALS are the
strongest and hardest, and are preferred in
France, Italy and Europe generally, where
they now use with great success what are
known as the Pyrean, CevenneS, Var, Milan
ese and Roumeliau tAdrianople varieties.
